My wife, who used to teach on faculty at Texas Tech University
tells a true story that occurred at a new-student orientation
one September. The student body President was addressing the
auditorium filled with bright-eyed students and their expectant
parents. The Prez paused in his talk with the announcement that
he had recently heard a good Aggie joke he wanted to share with
the group. At once, an offended parent stood up shouting, "Hey,
I'm an Aggie!" The Prez paused for a moment and replied: "Okay
for you, I'll tell it r e a l s l o o o w."
